Vajrayogini.com started in 2000 as a support and collaboration site for the ongoing Vajrayogini Class Lama Kunga Thartse Rinpoche has been giving at Ewam Choden Tibetan Buddhist Center in Kensigton, California (San Francisco Bay area). A group of dedicated practitioners got together to translate, create and produce usable Vajrayogini sadhana, commentary and other practice texts in the Sakya (and Gelug) tradition. We were soon joined and greatly helped by renowned scholar and translator Dr. Alexander Berzin who ever since has guided us patiently through subtleties of the Dharma. We thank our generous friend and teacher, Lama Kunga Thartse Rinpoche who never gets tired to answer the many questions we have. The same is true for our friend Dr. Kurt Keutzer who translated the long sadhana for the Sakya practice. We are also indebted to our friend, the thangka painter and great artist Andy Weber who helped us with the visualization material. To this very day, vajrayogini.com is not an organization of any sorts - and there are no plans to create one in the future. Most work is voluntary, and all expenses are taken care of. The only things we don't have enough is time, energy, and insight. Other than that we share the same goals with similar endeavors like the International Kalachakra Network , Guhyasamaja.com , or our sister project, www.vajrabhairava.com.
